[Verse 1]
If I were a NASCAR man going 'round and 'round
Yeah, you know I'd be number three
If I were the best damn football in the south
I'd be the SEC
And if I were a Velcro stitched up stars and stripes
You can bet I'd be flying proud
Or pressed on the chest of America's best
Putting bad dudes in the ground

[Chorus]
And if I were rock and roll
I'd be a middle finger in your face
If I were a lost soul
I'd be in church more than just Sunday
And if for some reason I was Jesus
I'd have a lot of forgiving to do
And if I weren't a fool
Girl, I'd still be with you

[Verse 2]
If I were a granddaddy rocking on a rocking chair
I'd have a grandson on my lap
If I were a first time there, front porch stare
I'd pray she kissed me back
If I were a rebel kid meeting with the man
Hearing Johnny Don't Do That
With a guitar strapped, I'd go all black
Tell 'em all to kiss my ass

[Chorus]
If I were rock and roll
I'd be a middle finger in your face
If I were a lost soul
I'd be in church more than just Sundays
And if for some reason I was Jesus
I'd have a lot of forgiving to do
And if I weren't a fool
Girl, I'd still be with you
Yeah, I'd still be with you

[Bridge]
If I were a smart man
I wouldn't just write you a song
Straight from the heart and
And pray you turned it on
No, I'd step it up and I'd mean it
When I look into your eyes
And I'd be on my way to Denver
And I'd be holding you tonight

[Chorus]
And if I were rock and roll
I'd be a middle finger in your face
If I were a lost soul
I'd be in church more than just Sundays
And if for some reason I was Jesus
I'd have a lot of forgiving to do
And if I weren't a fool
Girl, I'd still be with you

[Outro]
Yeah, I'd still be with you
I'd still be, oh, I'd still be with you
I'd still be, oh, I'd still be, oh
I'd still be with you
Yeah, I'd still be with you

Chase Rice

Country music maverick Chase Rice has become one of country music’s most exciting figures since arriving in Nashville, building a loyal fan base across the country through his energetic live shows and gaining the attention of music critics and industry professionals alike with his edgy, eclectic sound. The Tar Heel State native recently released his first taste of new music with “Lonely If You Are,” now available on all digital platforms and climbing the charts at Country radio. The song follows his sophomore album, Lambs & Lions, released with Broken Bow Records in 2017 and featuring two-week chart-topper “Eyes On You” – Rice’s first No. 1 as an artist and the most-streamed song of his career with more than 200 million streams and counting. Lambs & Lions followed Ignite the Night, which debuted at No. 1 on Billboard’s Top Country Albums and No. 3 on the all-genre chart, producing a pair of Top 5 hits; the Platinum-certified “Ready Set Roll” and “Gonna Wanna Tonight.” After supporting Kenny Chesney’s The Big Revival Tour, Rice has consistently sold out 2,500-3,000 seat venues on his own headlining tours, plus served as direct support on the Luke Bryan Farm Tour 2018. His current headlining AM/PM Tour runs through the rest of 2019 before his The Pint of Anything Tour hits Europe in early 2020.
